Attention of the ISAF Windsurfing Committee Mister Williams Ceri Attention of the ISAF Windsurfing Committee Mister Williams Ceri Bredene, 10/9/2008 Concerning: Formula Windsurfing One Design for 2012 Olympics Dear Mister Williams, dear Ceri, No need to introduce myself but just for the record: I am an active windsurfer since 1975 (Windsurfer®, Windglider, Lechner, slalom, speed, Mistral & Formula), I competed on national, European and World Level, worked as national windsurf coach, International Race officer, International Measurer and I am a member of the ISAF Windsurfing committee since 2001. I’m still trying to surf every week in the summer, mainly on slalom and big wave boards. Early this year, as president of the International Funboard Class Association, I became involved in the steering committee of the project `Formula Windsurfing One Design for 2012 Olympics`. The project was initiated by the International Formula Windsurfing Class at its 2006 AGM and developed by the steering committee. In March 2008 we applied to be listed as possible equipment from the 2012 Olympics. Let me explain why I believe that this new equipment should replace the RS:X. 1) Time for further evolution After 3 Olympics (96, 00 & 04) the Mistral one-design equipment was considered obsolete. It no longer represented what mainstream windsurfing was all about. New Olympic equipment should be selected for 2008. Pushed by the whole windsurfing community Neil Pryde proposed in 2003 to introduce "Formula Windsurfing one-design" for the 2008 Olympics. (see attachment 1): A one- design formula board, rig, sail and fin was proposed as the best alternative. I quote 2 pages from the 2003 Neil Pryde proposal: 1/3 Due to the very low wind predictions for Qingdao, the Neil Pryde "formula windsurfing" proposal had to be re-written as a “hybrid” board (with dagger board) format. This resulted in trials where, finally, the RS:X was chosen as the best hybrid board. Unfortunately the production run of the RS:X turned out to be 30 % heavier than the boards presented at the trials and the original fast planning fins of 70 cm where reduced to 60 cm (women) & 66 cm (men). The Sailing event for the London Olympics 2012 will be organised in Weymouth. Regular breeze is forecast and today Formula boards plane in 6 knots - there is no longer a need for hybrid boards. Now is the time to move forward on the path initiated by Neil Pryde in 2003 and choose the "Formula Windsurfing One Design" (see attachment 2). This new equipment starts planning in 6 knots and is currently sailed by most of the racing windsurfers in the world. 2) Broaden the base Worldwide I have been looking to find one recreational RS:X surfer but I could not find one….. This board is so specific, so hard to sail, that weekend- competition surfers never use the board. - In <6 knot conditions the old race boards) perform best - In >6 knot conditions the Formula boards are a lot faster around the course There is already worldwide a large number formula surfers, spread over 43 countries. The number of active formula competitors is more then double that of active RS:X surfers. If Formula one design would become Olympic an increase to >60 countries actively racing on the New Olympic One Design is to be expected (currently 46 countries in RS:X). To conclude: more windsurfers in more countries would get easy access to Olympic Windsurfing. 3) The Price - youth/ladies The new Olympic Equipment would cost 2/3 of the price of RSX . Using the Formula Experience Class as a feeder youth class the cost would be half of the RS:X class. It is also very clear to everybody who works with children and women in windsurfing that the current RS:X class is not at all suited for youth and 2/3 women : the equipment is heavy and pumping is a must under 11 knots. The equipment is also too expensive for club programs and there is no second hand market to allow annual replacement of the equipment. 4) The windsurfing image We absolutely have to reduce the pumping (air-rowing). Nobody in the sailing world likes it, and the windsurfers hate it. To eliminate pumping there are only 2 possibilities: - stay with RS:X and set a minimum wind limit of 11 knots…or…… - move to the Formula Windsurfing One Design and start planning in 6 knots Of course pumping will never be totally eliminated: during starts, at manoeuvres, on a run downwind with waves, pumping will remain visible but not the rhythmic air-rowing spectacle we see now. I also firmly believe that we should further experiment with new formats ………the medal race with slalom finish was a good start but we should look further…..half fleet racing, quarter fleet racing, single eliminations, double eliminations, more and shorter races, closer to the beach (audience), better TV productions using gps, camera mount, online scoring, on water judging should be further trialled……. Sorry, my one-page-memo became 3 pages…... Ceri, can I kindly ask you to double check the above with the active windsurf community in your country. But talk not only to the Olympians and their coaches, but also to the weekend surfers, the recreational surfers and ask them what they think/feel is right for the sport of windsurfing. Talk also to the clubs that are actively promoting windsurfing, that already started a Techno293 youth program, clubs that are using formula experience as youth class….. Forget also past investments done in RS:X equipment…windsurfing is still the cheapest Olympic sailing sport and the cost of equipment is very low compared with all other investments: programs, coaches, trainings, stages,……Investments are done in people and they switch very easy to new equipment as proven with the RS:X change. Especially if the new equipment is more fun to race! If you have any further questions or remarks on the above feel free to ask. I'm glad to help to promote our fascinating sport and my only aim is to increase popularity of sailing/windsurfing worldwide and make Olympic windsurfing as recognisable as possible for the day-to-day surfer all over the world. Thanks for your attention and support, Bruno De Wannemaeker ISAF windsurfing committee member President International Funboard Class Association 2 attachments: FW2003NP.pdf proposal FOD2012FW.ppt proposal member of member of International Funboard Class Association Mengham Cottage, Mengham Lane, Hayling Island, Hampshire PO11 9JX, U.K. Visit also http://ifca.internationalwindsurfing.com/ 3/3 .

  • DOSSIER DE PRESSE 2012 Marc FEUILLEE Président Directeur Général - Groupe Le Figaro
    DOSSIER DE PRESSE 2012 Marc FEUILLEE Président directeur général - Groupe Le Figaro Le Groupe Figaro a décidé de développer au sein de son por- tail internet lefigaro.fr, leader français des sites d'actualité, une chaine nautisme, en synergie avec meteoconsult, les pages sports du quotidien et la course La Solitaire. Par ailleurs, afin d'amplifier le développement de l'événement, le Groupe Figaro a décidé de confier pour les prochaines an- nées, l’organisation de La Solitaire du Figaro - Eric Bompard Cachemire à la société Pen Duick. Son expertise dans le milieu des courses océaniques est in- déniable et reconnue. Organisateur de nombreuses courses transatlantiques dont deux en classe Figaro Bénéteau 2, je suis intimement convaincu que cette nouvelle équipe portera encore plus haut les couleurs de cet événement de premier ordre du calendrier voile en France. Depuis désormais 42 ans, La Solitaire a permis à de nombreux marins de se forger une expérience majeure dans la grande aventure de la course au large en révélant de magnifiques talents qui voguent désormais sur de multiples supports. Il n’est pas rare de voir ces grands marins venir régulièrement, se jau- ger et se mesurer à la jeune garde. La Solitaire du Figaro - Eric Bompard Cachemire possède cet atout unique de pouvoir ré- gater à armes égales sur des parcours toujours très exigeants, difficiles et sélectifs et qui requièrent de la part de ces skippers un grand sens de la navigation. L’internationalisation se poursuit cette année par une étape en Espagne à Gijon mais également avec la présence parmi les inscrits de plusieurs skippers anglais, portugais et norvégiens.

HISTORY OF THE SPORT Sailing is a lifelong sport enjoyed by thousands of Canadians at clubs, cottages, marinas and in oceans afar. There are many avenues to pursue with sailing- be it cruising the seven seas, weekend/evening racing, coaching, officiating, the ever popular Sunday family afternoon sail… For those who chose to race, there are a multitude of different boats and competition formats to choose from. One design racing- which is the type used at this Canada Games, has all the “same types” of boats competing against each other. The America’s Cup competition is the first thing that comes to mind for many people when they think of sailboat racing. This regatta, first hosted in 1851, has certainly had a positive impact on publicity of sailing around the world. Sailing was first included at the modern Olympic Games in 1900. Since this time, the sailing equipment, technology and format has changed quite dramatically for the Olympian and club sailor alike. Yachts used at the 1900 Games included the 0.5 Ton, 0.5-1 Ton, 1-2 Ton, 2-3 Ton, 3-10 Ton, 10-20 Ton, and the Open Class.
